This represents a unique epoch of Neil, just as radical in its own way as grunge or electronica. My view remains that the Harvesters always show wonderful musicianship, even as the songs can be hit or miss. There’s a puzzling tension in these songs between derivativeness and authenticity. It’s funny, thinking of songs like Misfits and Are there any more Real Cowboys?, that some of the Old Ways songs come across as stereotyped genre pastiches.
Is Neil purely emulating genre conventions? Or am I just feeling my own ambivalence about some of the sentiments (and sentimentality) of the songwriter? Could be both.

This era Timeline Concert reminds me of one of the only things that really bothered me about Archives, Vol. 3, and that is the lack of an Old Ways focused disc. I know we get the some of those outtake cuts on Evolution (1983–84) disc but it sure would have been nice to have the complete "Old Ways I" album Neil has hyped over the years (I may be overstating the hyped part but he did refer to it as Harvest II but Geffen rejected it). Would be amazing to hear as a whole in it's non-bootleg form as it was intended to be release. Feel like it would add a lot of context to the Harvesters era and be in line with the past Archives releases. Still digging what we got but fans are always going to want to hear those mythic records.
Couldn't agree more with you @Brian.
On the Farm Aid post I weighed in on this one, although I think it got lost in the roar of resounding agreement with Neil’s presidential endorsement announcement.
My comment was that Neil’s first Farm Aid band was the International Harvesters. This latest NYA Timeline Concert was recorded a year earlier and features the performance of Bound For Glory from A Treasure (and NYA Vol. III). The previous concert posted (6/6/84) also originates Vol. III tracks but has a much lower fidelity, shorter runtime, and an… overexcited Anthony Crawford. This newly unveiled Gilley’s show has amazing sound! The official releases are wonderful compilations, but this show delivers the full Int’l Harvesters experience.
@ Meta Rocker - good question. Neil connecting w/ Willie and Farm Aid during the 80's must have certainly influenced him... obviously. We think a sincere effort.
But...
at the same time, "Country Neil" was just another genre for him in the 80's, altho a genre that stuck. Unlike rockabilly, say, Everybody's Rockin, Exhibit A.
@ Brian - it does whet appetite for more Old Ways focus. Maybe that's the purpose?
@ tomatron - Yes! We do recall your comment. Sometimes it takes awhile. We get there eventually.
